[Music] [Music] there is a detail that personally was calling my attention a lot. It is that I saw God moving, but I saw a strong wave of violence. The news already seems like a horror movie, and I saw so many things happening. I would say, "Lord, I am rejoicing in what I am seeing in the churches, but what is happening to the world? Why so much hate, so much bitterness, so many destroyed marriages, so many children who no longer respect their parents? What is happening, Lord?" And I would rejoice, I would say, "No, I don't feel happy administering and the glory of God, but the news calls, emails, 'pray for us, my husband hit me, my husband left with another, my son killed so-and-so.'" And I would say, "And what is happening?" Ah, like an acceleration of evil. And I would say, "Lord, I know we are rejoicing that Christ is coming, but I, as a minister, want to give humanity an answer to what is happening. There is something that is accelerating. I know that Revelation 12:12 says, 'Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea, for the devil has come down to you with great wrath, because he knows that his time is short.'" But this wrath is like accelerated. Look, I went to Puerto Rico and they took me to a children's home, and when Pastor Omar takes me, there are about 15-20 children. I see they have problems, and when I finish praying, I tell him, "Mal, what is happening to those children?" They tell me, "Piña, the majority were raped by their fathers." I say, "No, no, no, you are not understanding me. I'm asking what is happening to them." He told me, "Their parents violated them, their own parents, children of 4 and 3 years old." I went home frustrated and told him, "Look, Lord, I love you, I know you called me to this, but I don't want to keep telling people that you are coming, that there is something stronger here, that you are coming. Something is happening here, and people need answers. I have to give them because I am your representative on earth. Never tell me what is happening." And I began to pray, I asked him direct questions. I don't think anyone sane would ask God. I want you to tell me what is happening to the world, what is happening, what is happening. Listen to this, and God told me one day, "I will explain to you what is happening with mortals." I started with some ministers, and one told me, "Look, this must be a spirit of vengeance against you because of your ministries." I said, "You don't know what I'm telling you. Are you trying to tell me that he is angry, angry in Santo Domingo? He is angry because I am preaching, but there are people who have never given a message, not even put a hand on a microphone, and he hates them too. And he is also destroying their homes, and he is also destroying their finances. They do nothing else, they just sit there, and he hates them. What vengeance is against those people?" I told him, "There is something more here. Don't come to me with the story of vengeance." And I want you to hold on. Listen to this because what God taught me here is very strong. I told him, "Lord, what is happening?" God told me, "I will explain to you what is happening." He told me, "The problem of the world with mortals began in Genesis chapter 1, verse 26." I read it about 30 times and found nothing extraordinary. I read it, I read it, I read it. I told him, "Lord, I don't find anything there. There it says that God made man in his image and likeness." And I read it and read it until one day, *pa*, the light bulb went on. When I realized that Christ is God, he said, "Let us make man in our image." He said, "It cannot be. I was thrown out of heaven when I said I wanted to be like him. And now they are going, I don't know if anyone is understanding what I am saying, and now they are going to give it to these people. They are going to give it to them. They haven't earned it. They haven't fought for it. I wanted to be like him, and I was thrown out of heaven, and now they are giving it to you." I want to tell you tonight, on this day, you are not just anything. You have stamped on your life something called likeness with the Almighty. Raise someone's hand and say, "I am like God." Above what Satan had, and he made a breakdown, adorned with every precious stone, full of wisdom, perfect in beauty, directed the praise, was the fourth man of heaven, a guardian cherub. I put it all on one sheet, and on the other blank sheet, I put likeness. And I said, "He abandoned all of this sheet to go after that." The Bible says that I have this. I looked at myself in a mirror and said, "Open a button, how does this turn on? How is this used? Open a manual to use this." Let no one tell me that we are like God. That is nice, we are like God, but this goes deeper because the Bible says he was full of wisdom. When a person is full of wisdom, they have the capacity to examine the situation, and with his wisdom, he examined and said, "It is worth it for me to risk all of this for likeness." And he risked everything. And now the Bible says that I have it. Look, a crazy Dominican from Haina started saying, "Now, Jehovah, I want you to tell me what likeness means." And I began to pray, and I asked friends, and they told me, "No, it's that we look alike." I said, "It's that you don't understand. He was full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. He had beauty. He didn't want to be more beautiful. This is even deeper." And I began to pray. Something came loose from God, and one day, crying, he told me, "Piña, leave it like that." I said, "Oh, you fell into a trap. You are telling me that there is something there. If you are telling me to leave it like that, it means there is something powerful there. Now you will have me praying, fasting, fighting, unleashing until you tell me what that is." Listen to this because God loves you, and there are revelations. That's why I don't allow anyone to talk to me about any minister because it's good to criticize a minister, but there are revelations that cost illnesses. Listen to what Paul, an emissary of the devil, received slaps because of the revelations God gave him. Daniel received a certain type of revelation that sometimes he fell as if dead, breathless from the revelation. There are revelations that God gives to ministers, and then people just know how to tear them down, but those people have suffered for years. And I understood that God was telling me, "You are asking for something very strong. Wait." I said, "No, no, I want to know now, what is likeness?" And I began to pray, and I asked many ministers. I spoke with a rabbi friend of mine, he gave me information, he told me that in Hebrew it is "demut," someone with almost the same characteristic. I said, "No, that's good, but I want revelation now." And I went to a mountain to pray. I spent 2 years praying, saying, "Jehovah, I want to know what that means." The day I read that paper every day, "full of wisdom, perfect in beauty, adorned with every precious stone, gold, carbuncle, emerald." Look, I read everything every day, and on the other sheet, I read "likeness," and I looked at the sky and said, "My God, he left all of this for this, and I have it. Tell me how to use it, what it's for, how it works." And the day less expected, "likeness is the power to establish." Listen, the creative power, the power to bring order in the heavens of God. And you would say, "Well, you came, you seem like you drank something last night. I'm a little drunk from the wine of anointing that fell here last night, but I am very sober in the spirit." Listen to this. Likeness, God told me, is the power to establish, the power to declare, the creative power of God. How do you dare to say that? Satan was there next to him, and he saw everything God gave him and saw all the attributes of God, and nothing, because he had everything. Now, when he saw God say, "Let there be light," and the light appeared, *pa*. "Let the light be separated from the darkness." He wasn't speaking, he just let out the word. He said, "Wow, I want that. I want likeness." And God threw him out of heaven, saying, "That does not belong to you." And I told him, "Lord, that's good, but it's very strong for me to tell people that likeness is synonymous with the power to establish in the heavens, to declare, and to be creative. I need biblical support." And God told me, "Write it down," and he took me to the book of Joshua chapter 10 and told me, "You know what you have preached about when Joshua gave an order, but do you know the supernatural context of that? A man named Joshua stands up and tells the sun, 'Stop in Gibeon.'" The sun is 300,000 times larger than the earth, and it is obeying a mortal of flesh and blood who is telling it to stop, not to move. He is speaking as likeness. The sun is attentive and says, "Command the earth." Listen to this. The moon is coming in, and Joshua says, "Sun, stay there, I'm going to talk to the moon. You are going to go to Gibeon." And the moon says, "Okay, no problem." Praise God if you can. Now, and it goes to Gibeon. There is no human explanation for the sun to obey a human. He is just speaking as likeness, establishing as likeness to God. When Elijah says, "It will not rain," he doesn't say, "Jehovah." Elijah said, "By my word, praise God, can you see this now? By my word, the heavens close, and not a drop of water falls." I don't know if anyone understands what I am saying. You know the things that have to happen for it not to rain, the rivers that will dry up, the fauna, the flora that will be affected, and this man decides to say, "Even more, it will not rain here by my word." He is establishing as likeness to the Almighty. And then he said, "It will rain now," and the heavens open, and it rains because he is speaking as likeness, the creative power, the power to declare in the heavens. Now I understand, Juan Carlos, why Proverbs says in Proverbs 18, "In the tongue is the power of life and death." Now I understand why Proverbs says in the tongue is the power of life and death. Now I understand why in Matthew 18:18 Christ says, "Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." The only one respected in heaven is God. The only one obeyed in heaven is God. But he is telling you, "You have something that will also be respected. You have something that is likeness, the power to establish, to order on earth and in the heavens." It is obeyed. Praise God if you can. In this hour, give orders. I have never in my life heard anyone preach about John 20:23. Later, when we are eating, help me there. Christ says to the disciples, "Whose sins you forgive, they are forgiven." Is anyone understanding what I am saying? "Whose sins you forgive, they are forgiven, and whose sins you retain, they are retained." Do you know what we have done? We have let that verse go. I don't want to preach that now. Do you know what Christ is saying there? "Forgive sins." And if you decide that no one will be forgiven, the heaven closes. I, a man of flesh and blood, how is that? Active likeness in my life, active likeness in my life. Look, listen to this. One day Elisha is walking. Be careful with prophets, be careful. And some young men begin to mock him about something he had. They didn't blaspheme the Holy Spirit, nor did they speak against God. They told him something that was true. This man speaks a word, and some bears appear and devour more than 40 young men. But how can 40 people die because a prophet wished to open his mouth? It's because he is establishing as likeness to the Almighty. I told him, "God, all of that is good, but I need something more." You know, one goes to congresses where there are stoics, epicureans, and rabbis. I need something more. Then God told me, "Write this down, you're going to like it." And he took me to the book of Numbers. And when I arrived at the book of Numbers, Balaam, listen to this. When King Balak sends for Balaam, he says, "I am sending for you because I know that whoever you bless, God blesses, and whoever you curse, God curses." I already know, listen to this, by revelation, that he wanted to curse the Hebrew people because he knew that from the Hebrew people, Christ would come to crush his head. Genesis 3:15. Someone will crush your head. Listen to this. So he knows that from the Hebrew people, someone is coming to crush his head. He wants to annul that prophecy and sends for Balaam. Balaam says, "I won't go because Jehovah told me not to go." They raise the offer. "I won't go." A billion dollars. The guy had to say, "Let me pray." One cannot speak so lightly. David, my question is, if he wants to curse the Hebrew people, why doesn't he go and curse them and save himself that trouble? You know what he is saying? "I cannot do it because I do not have likeness." "How much more will I give you a million dollars? What do you want? But come, curse that people." "I cannot do it. It is you who can do it because you have the creative power to speak." No, someone has to understand what I am talking about today. "I will buy you, I will rent it from you." He is renting likeness from many people. He has seen your children, he has seen your husband, and he has seen that there is a prophetic projection, and since he cannot curse them, he uses your mouth and rents it from you. And I have seen people telling their children, "You are useless, you are good for nothing." You are marking them, you are annulling them because he cannot do it, and he needs your mouth, your likeness. I come to speak to you this afternoon to tell you, do not rent your likeness. The shoemaker arrived at his house today. Stop complaining so much. "How are you?" "I'm bad, I'm in misery, I'm in trouble." In Santo Domingo, today is trouble. Open the door of your house tonight. Raise both hands and say, "In this house flows the river. Oh my God, the river of God flows in this house. Prosperity of God flows, integrity of God flows, joy of God flows." Put your hand on your husband and tell him, "You are a prophet of God." In his name, "But if I went, I had not gone for a long time because I now live in Santo Domingo. When I arrive, I say, 'I'm going to stop by.' I visit a sister I haven't seen in 15 years, and I go in quickly. I say, 'Sister,' she hugs me, cries, 'Oh, it's good to see you. I hear you on the radio.' I say, 'I have to go.' And Carlito, Carlito is her son, we grew up together. 'A dangerous prophet, I want you to take him on crusades. That boy has a prophetic anointing.'" While she is talking to me, Carlito enters with a beer in his hand, bigger than him, some pants down here. "Piña, what's up?" I say, "Praise God!" And he shakes my hand. I say, [Music] "Uh, greet me there." I'm leaving there because you are in gospel revelry. I'll visit you later. I took off my shirt. "God is seeing." He leaves. When he leaves, "I'm going to give this lady two minutes to fix this. I'm not going to go around and destroy her like people do. We are going to solve it here in two minutes." And he's talking. "Can you tell me, look, I remember you." When I was talking, "Wait, I can't take it anymore. You deceived me. Yes, you deceived me. You told me your son was a terrible prophet. Your son is just a lost soul who arrived here drunk." Oh, oh, oh. That woman stood up, and with those four fingers, she hit the table like this. "I respect you. I was going to hit you. I respect you, but I won't allow you to say that in my house." I say, "But excuse me, you told me he was a prophet, and prophets are not drunk on beer." And he told me, "God calls things that are not as if they were. I am marking him as a prophet. He is my prophet, and I accept nothing else but that he is my prophet. He is the prophet of God." Speak about your husband, even if you see the opposite, and tell him, "He is the strongest prophet." In the coming days, speak about your children, speak about your house. How many praise the glory of God? Speak, establish orders in the heavens. How many praise his name this afternoon? I say, "Excuse me now." Listen to this. If I don't tell you this final part, this message is useless. One day I wake up, and this is the final part, David, because there were three parts. First, I learned what likeness was. Then I learned that likeness is the power to establish. For a day, I stood up again and said, "Lord, I know I ask you a lot, but I promise I won't talk to you about this anymore. My question is, if we are alike, is every human being alike? Because there are people who declare more than judges, and nothing happens, and there are others who declare, and things happen, and both are alike. Clarify that for me. I'm going out to talk about it." I said, "I'll explain it to you again. There are people who are alike, but they declare, 'I establish, I declare,' and I don't see anything happening. Now, there are others who declare, and things happen. What happens if both are alike, and likeness, you told me, is the power to establish?" Then he told me, "Because you missed something when you were reading the chapter of Isaiah, and you didn't read verse 13." I said, "Lord, I went to read verse 13." So, we read Isaiah 14, and listen to what verse 13 says. When I am reading verse 13, it says, "You who said in your heart, 'I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far north.'" God told me, "For that likeness to be active, it's not everything you declare. It's where you are seated spiritually at the time of your [Music] declaration." Satan wanted likeness, but first he said, "I will sit." Then he said, "Sitting there next to me." Then the likeness works. The likeness has a code. If you are not seated at the right hand, it doesn't work. You can declare everything you want, but you have to be seated in heavenly places. If not, ask the sons of Sceva, who went there in the book of Acts, and they declared as likeness. "Demons, go out in the name of Christ!" The one preaching, Paul, the demons stood up and said, "I know who Paul is, I know Christ, but who are you?" "I don't see you in the chair." Praise God if you can. In this hour, and for me to receive orders from Christians, they have to be next to the chair. That's why Paul says that we are seated. We are not going to sit. We are seated together with Christ Jesus at the right hand of the Father. And for your likeness to work, you cannot get up from that chair. Shake someone's hand and tell them, "Don't get up from the chair. Don't get up from the chair." There are people here who should be flowing at a supernatural level, and they are just sitting there. They only go to congresses to enjoy themselves, but they don't know that they have the essence of God to administer in congresses. But he has decreed so much against you that the decree of darkness has you sitting. Hold on, because I am speaking in favor of your life. Every decree that has you bound is broken. Decrees of darkness are broken in the name of Yeshua Hamas. Decrees that keep you from legally obtaining your immigration status in this country fall to the ground. They fall to the ground. Decrees that bind you to sin fall to the ground. Decrees of all levels fall to the ground. Decrees of misery, of health, of marital problems, decrees of envy, jealousy, hatred against you, of sorcery, witchcraft, spiritism, white magic, black magic, Umbanda, Macumba, Quirimba fall to the ground. They fall to the ground in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. And now, raise your hands very high. Now the heavens open in your favor, and I declare that the rain, the rain of God floods you, the finances of God flood you, the glory of God floods you, the presence of God fills you. Raise your hand and say, "I am a magnet. I attract power, I attract glory, I attract anointing, I attract..." This is opening, the heavens are opening. [Music] [Music] I want you to take your brother's hand for one more minute. It is very likely that you are holding onto a dangerous man or woman in God. I don't know if you have ever been shocked, but I have touched posts that gave me an electric shock, and here there is an electrifying anointing. There are people who... Right now, chains are breaking, oppressions are leaving, illnesses are disappearing, cloaks of defeat are being removed from your life. They are removed from your life. From today on, you rise, you rise with power. You leave the land of oblivion. Come out, come out now, come out. Here you go, come out. Hold on there, be careful. Come out of the land of oblivion and come to the land of Christ's light. I am speaking this word, but there is fire coming out of the prophets. There is a strong presence coming out of the men and women. Oh, it's happening. Something very strong is happening here. There are people who are on fire in God. Receive! Oh, oh, oh, oh, receive! There is the fire, fire on pastors, fire on evangelists, fire on singers, fire on prophets, fire on missionaries, fire on apostles. Fire! Wow! There it is, there it is. Fire! Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna! To the heights! [Music] [Music]
